I remember seeing that episode. The man was being ostracized for not wanting to make a killing because of the enormity of what he had envisioned could do for the farming industry. Beautiful ending thank to his angel investor.

Simple, practical and loaded with common sense. And powerful. Make America Great Forever. I am not using the phrase "Make America Great Again". Cause it is great already. It just needs to stay that way

Understood
. My daughters were educated on how democracy work. At elementary school level. They learnt how an individual citizen, like themselves, can get a bill / measure passed. If they see something that needs to be fixed in their living environment. An onerous process, no less, and most are not inclined that way. But the point is, it is possible for ordinary citizens to get involved and get their political voices heard.
It is a culture and system that empowers you at a young age. Rather than teaching our young to be fearful of those who hold power over us. Now, that is what I call beautiful. America The Beautiful.
